Kathleen Harrison Cooper, dearly known to family and friends as “Leen” was born on February 18, 1963 in Louisville, Mississippi to Mr. Essie C. Harrison and Mrs. Minnie Lee (Craig) Harrison. She was the baby of 14 children (8 girls and 6 boys).
She received her early education in DeKalb Mississippi and attended Kemper County High School. She furthered her education by attending Meridian Junior College in Meridian, Mississippi. In the late 90’s Kathleen met and fell in love with Sammie Williams and they were blessed with two beautiful children, Zachary Cooper and Taylor Leanne Cooper, whom they loved and dearly cherished.
In 2004, after moving from DeKalb, Mississippi to Orlando, Florida she worked as a crossing guard in the Orlando School District. Kathleen enjoyed reading, taking long walks, and spending time with her children.
On October 25, 2018, Leen peacefully transitioned from this life at the age of 55. She was preceded in death by her parents Mr. Essie C. Harrison and Mrs. Minnie (Craig) Harrison; her significant other and dearly beloved father of her children, Sammie Williams, along with two brothers: Essie Odell Harrison, Thomas Jeff Harrison; and four sisters: Glenda Lou Harrison, Gussie Ree Harrison, Minnie Inez Neal and Ethel Mae Clowers.
